What is Engineer for the Week?
Started in 2018, Meta's Engineer for the Week is a free program that introduces engineering to learners (ages 11-18) historically underrepresented in STEM. Over the course of 15 - 20 hours, learners work alongside adult facilitators to build tech prototypes that address a social issue of their choice.
Our Vision
We believe in a world where all learners have equitable access and opportunity to build their futures.
